There's a mist over Broadway
Breathing cool sheets of rain
Lights his last cigarette
And turns his back to the windShe says, baby, I don't know
Just how to explain
And I can't see the sense
And I can't play this gameBut he's not even listening
He stares at the ground
And she won't ever know
What was on his mindWell, now he's a rebel without a cause
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
See your name in lights just like Jimmy Dean
Live and die behind the wheelOpened out on the highway
Leaving her far behind
There's a star down on sunset
He says, yeah, this one's mineShe says, baby, I don't know
Just how to explain
And I can't see the sense
And I can't play this gameBut he's not even listening
He stares at the ground
And she won't ever know
What was on his mindWell, now he's a rebel without a cause
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
See your name in lights just like Jimmy Dean
Live and die behind the wheelWell, now Mr D whispered in his ear
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
Engines running hot singing Jimmy Dean
Any time there's time to killHe drove like a demon
And he burned up the screen
But he never looked back no
She just wasted my timeWell, now he's a rebel without a cause
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
See your name in lights just like Jimmy Dean
Live and die behind the wheelGonna let those horses loose again
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
See them running wild just like Jimmy Dean
Overdrive in chrome and steelHey c'mon
Hey c'mon, let's make a deal
Well, now he's a rebel without a cause
Live and die behind the wheel
